Increases Customer and Employee Satisfaction with a Business that Smells Unique and Memorable!

Why all Businesses Should Scent.

Your guests and employees are going to smell your space—it’s unavoidable. If you’re not managing how it smells, something else is.

Common malodors that are solved by scenting businesses include the following:

• Furniture and flooring odor
• Product odor
• Restroom odor
• Food odor
• Garbage odor
• Body odor
• Cigarette smoke

These types of malodors are why all businesses should scent, as they cannot be resolved with cleaning solutions alone without smelling like an institution, which is where Aroma Retail helps businesses present a great smelling space.

Successful businesses manage the way they smell for many reasons:

• Increased revenue from customers by creating a better first impression with more productive and memorable visits because your space is a great smelling place to be.
• Increased productivity from employees because everyone is more comfortable with a better mood in a great smelling space.
• Increased productivity from employees and therapists because everyone has a better mood and is more comfortable in a great smelling spa.
• Without scenting, your design and décor are incomplete and just doesn’t feel right.
